Even if the display is set to show only the most recent acquisition (minimum
persistence), the data base keeps track of all pixel hits while the data base is
building.
Color graded display, mask testing, and histograms all use the same data
base, and turning on any one of them starts building the data base. Suppose
that the data base is building because color graded display is turned on.
When mask testing is turned on, it takes advantage of the information already
established in the data base as if it had been turned on the entire time. The
results are updated automatically from the existing data base, which allows
you to modify the mask or to load a new mask without having to reacquire
the data. You will know how many waveforms and samples were taken, and
how many samples failed, but not how many waveforms failed.
